    The pass course contains:
    Paper 1: letter, conversation, story, essay. Ya choose two of these.
    Theres 2 comprehentions aswell
    Paper 2: prós and poetry and there are 5 poems and 5 storys the poems on the paper .

    Thats it. Dont drop down if ya think you can pass. But if ya think your gonna fail drop down and if ya dont get an A or a B in pass ya shouldn't have been in honours in the first place.

    hope this helps

    i got an a2 in ordinary level after c3's d1's in honours. go buy past exam papers and see for yourself what you think. the way i saw it was i was putting in loads of work for honours and neglecting my other subjects and i ended up with the same number of points for not having to put in much for pass level.
